Abstract

Eight molecules with different conformations are present in the unit cell of the PtII complex 1, which contains a mismatched arrangement of the chiral ligands Chiraphos and Binol (i.e., (S,S)-Chiraphos prefers the δ conformation, whereas (R)-Binol tends to induce the λ conformation in the diphosphane). The observed flexibility of these bidentate ligands should not be disregarded in stereochemical models for explaining the selectivity in asymmetric catalysis.
